'(Biblical) salvation lies not in an escape from this world but in the transformation of this world....You will not find hope for the world in any of the religious systems or philosophies of humankind.....The biblical vision is unique.

No faith holds out a promise of eternal salvation for the world-the ordinary world- that the cross and resurrection of Jesus do'
